I managed to compile the whole software platform under 32-bit but when I try to run it, it core dumps. I'm not getting much help from the development community there as Sparc isn't a popular arch or an officially supported platform. I really want to try and see if I can build a 64-bit SSL library. If after that also it doesn't compile or startup and runs stable, then I'll just go to a different platform. I saw this thread from may 2010: http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2010/05/msg00010.html He got the same answer that Brian gave me, but I wonder if Ted got this solved or figured out. Thanks so much. I will really appreciate the help Cheers
